2015 MUNSTER CHAMPIONS Clonmel Commercials dethroned reigning champions Loughmore-Castleiney in the Tipperary SFC semi-finals at Leahy Park today.
Michael Quinlivan and Commercials edged a close-fought game against Loughmore-Castleiney, who had the McGrath brothers Noel and John in their side.
Clonmel ran out narrow 1-9 to 1-6 winners to seal their first county final in two years.
Clonmel will meet John O’Dwyer’s Killenaule in the final after the latter enjoyed a 2-16 to 1-18 extra-time win over Moyle Rovers in the other last four clash.
Killenaule led by 2-8 to 1-7 after a rip-roaring opening half, but the sides finished level on 2-11 to 1-14 after the regulation 60 minutes. That sent the tie to extra-time, where O’Dwyer’s side did just about enough to seal the win.
Killenaule will now compete in the club’s first ever county senior football final later this month.
Aaaaahhhhh happy days!
5 year unbeaten run…
Yes, lets list the European giants who went and failed:
Newcastle Falcons, Newport Gwent Dragons (x2), Edinburgh, Leeds Tykes (I’m not joking, this is the real list), Cardiff Blues, Calvisano, Beneton Treviso (x2), London Wasps, Castres & London Irish…
Confirmed: Everest conquered.
All three French internationals were no match for the mighty Munster. For updates, tune into the Pro D2.
How sad are you to spend your time looking up that info. That’s noy easily got! How far out of your way did you have to go? Get a life and get over yourself.
USAP were virtually unbeatable in that stadium before Munster won there, not just in Europe. I seem to recall something like a 35 match unbeaten run before Munster played there.
Must be a burden to have such a large chip on your shoulder.
I would say its not much of a burden as it well balanced with a chip on both shoulders. How sad to waste your time looking all that info up in the first place.
Those days are long gone.
